Windows 8 Password Features
 

This post on the MSDN Blog talks about the steps Microsoft is taking to protect your "digital identity" in Windows 8. The post is rather lengthy but definitely worth reading. Windows 8 simplifies the task of managing unique and complex passwords in two important ways.

Internet Explorer 10 uses the credentials that we store to remember names and passwords for websites you visit (if you choose).
